What is a stacked bowling ball layout?

Stacked means that the pin and cg (pin and mass bias on asym) are the same distance from the pap. This position gives the ball maximum length before it starts reacting. Think hockey stick motion. So basically a leverage layout gives you the strongest motion, and a stacked layout gives you max length.

How should I have my bowling ball drilled?

Choose a hole configuration.

1. A conventional grip is achieved by drilling holes deep enough so that your fingers and thumb are inserted into the ball up to the second knuckle joint.

What should the layout of a bowling ball be?

The layout – When the ball is drilled put the pin 4.5 inches from your positive axis point (pap) or under your ring finger. On a symmetrical ball the center of gravity (cg) should be in line with the pin angling toward your thumb. On an asymmetrical ball the mass bias should be in line with the pin and directly underneath your thumb.

Bowling Ball Layouts – The Stacked Layout. In other words the higher the pin the longer the ball moves down the lane before it flips or breaks. The surface is usually a pearl or a shiner solid reactive bowling ball. Caution – Now if you use this on oil it will slide to far and never flip. So match the ball to the lane condition.
